Sorry I wasn't on last night. Wasn't feeling at all well, went to bed way early.

Glad your internet troubles got sorted, Mr. D.

HI

And sorry you weren't feeling well.

Better now, at least

Had all sorts of hijinks with trying to sort out classroom furniture today. Most of my stuff ended up back in my room after summer cleaning because it was all clearly labeled. But for some reason a ton of furniture (not labeled) just got dumped in my classroom. I spent half the day trying to sort out whose it was. I'm still missing a few things.

Oy!

This happens to you every year doesn't it ?

Some variation on it, yeah.

Teachers are treated as an afterthought in this district a lot of the time.

I love the stuff in EarthRunes!

I'm glad. Did you wish to game anything or prefer just to talk? Its good.

Just talk, if you don't mind. Most of my creative brain power is being directed at school prep.

How's it feel being bald?

Ha! Love the Scarsdale stuff, too!

Well, more like hair stubble than all the way bald. Honestly, while I will probably let it grow out again, I kind of like it. It doesn't look that great on me (My head complexion is a touch off) but it feels neat, and I have enjoyed grabbing the house cats and stroking them going "Meet Mr. Biggle's worth!"

Perfect!

And yeah, never go after a mailbox where a Nocker is involved.

Alas, my attempt to do a 'TO ME MY X-MEN!" got me told I was NOT professor X. Spoil sports.

I heard that in Vizzini's voice. (re: mailbox)

Spoil sports AND poopyheads!

Thank you! I think what's going to happen is in a month or more I'll find that 'still very short but looks better on me' area. I have a horse shoe baldness and while I love the character, I don't want to look like Ted Buckland from Scrubs.

Oh, gosh, no. Not Ted. But yeah, a well-trimmed fringe of hair can look nice!

As for Earth Runes, with Nema now just another sidhe childling, I have plans for the 'other', or am trying to get some. As you saw, the other sidhe soul is not Dougal (See Dreaming)

Oh, I hadn't picked up on that. Okay, good to note.

I see it now.

🙂 Of course who it will be etc is for another standard 'ack, widldness in the mall' or something. But it is for another night when folks have more time. Hopefully Shady and Rae will pop back in for that.

Hopefully!

Gimme a second. I need to check my college email.

No rush, we are just talking 🙂

sigh For the love of....

This thing was ALREADY APPROVED! But they want me to resubmit everything all over again!

You'd think I was injecting uranium into toddlers, with all the roadblocks these people have been putting in my path.

I can do this. Just...not tonight.

I'm sorry. Do you have a copy of the first time you sent it so you can resend it? Assume it is Email? Or is it paperwork hardcopy?

No, I looked again and they need me to make revisions to the recruitment flyer to bring it consistent with the study revisions. So...honestly, not the biggest roadblock (and something I need to do anyway), but ANNOYING.

Well glad it isn't as bad a roadblock as it could be. But wow. Between that at the furniture. You got a day.

The fact that I have to do all this in MS Word is just adding insult to injury.

A day, it was, indeed.

And I'm running out of brain battery.

Ah, you are working with "Stone knives and bear skins"

YES.

:spock-hand: Good night. Live long and prosper!
